Maria MengelComment

As we wrap up another year and 2022 comes to a close, we wanted to take a look back over this past year and the beautiful creations that have been made. Meghan and Ashley do such an amazing job crafting and designing these pieces with such care and attention to detail, even when creating the most simple of designs! While we are truly honored to create meaningful pieces for each of our sweet customers and their beautiful stories, we wanted to highlight a few of our favorite pieces from this past year! (as well as some of our all-time favorites!!!)
